I'm Kinsey, a co-author of two children’s books called Zuri the Zebra and the Tail of Kindness (April 10th, 2022) and Zuri the Zebra and the Rainbow Race for Kindness (July 27th, 2024).

I have a number of publications, including 48 articles published with Bookstr, 10 journals/magazines that have/are published /publishing my poetry, and five published blog articles with Wildebeest Publishing.

I also currently work with two non-profit organizations with the mission statement to spread kindness and positivity. These organizations are S.H.I.N.E. (Students Helping Ignite Needed Esteem) and Westville Warriors, and I have been a member since 2021.

When I am not writing about mental health or self-care, I play Magic: The Gathering with my boyfriend, haunt every bookstore for new historical fiction or poetry reads, spend quality time with my family, or play Japanese role-playing games.

I am always available to read books for book reviews. DM me on Instagram for more information!
